  Pilot, Not Autopilot

  Sep 10, 202648 min

  Alicia sits down with Jessica McKellar, CEO and founder of Pilot, to unpack Meridian, the AI accounting platform built over a decade and stress-tested across thousands of month-end closes before its public launch this year. Jessica walks through how it handles reconciliations, supporting schedules, and firm-specific policies natively, executes both recurring close checklists and ad hoc requests like revenue restatements, and why she thinks the shift will let accountants spend less time on mechanical work and more on judgment and advisory, changing how firms and individual accountants get paid in the process.

  3rd Anniversary Celebration with Hector Garcia

  Sep 3, 202650 min

  For UNQBA's third anniversary, Alicia welcomes back the podcast's original co-host, Hector Garcia, to look at how the industry has shifted since they started, from the rise of AI-native ledger alternatives like Xero, Digits, and Puzzle to Intuit's course correction on QuickBooks Live and Intuit Experts after accountant backlash. They dig into what "nail the basics" actually means inside Intuit, why the human relationship in accounting still matters even as AI handles more of the busywork, and what they're each watching for out of Intuit Connect and the 2027 rollout of Intuit Accountant Suite.
